Test how posh you are, here...

[srw]

Somewhere between 10 and 15 (for several it's impossible to judge oneself) - and most learned in te real world.

Which means I'm common, or so posh I know about self-deprecation.

 

[oldfatfool]

Don't need to know any of those, I have a wife, much simpler, if a little pricey.

I'd rely on Jeeves- Wooster's just thick.

I got 13, so not bad for a thick Yorkshireman....etc, etc.................

 

[Sandra6]

22, but I may be exaggerating my ability to manage a bank account.
My son left school last year, I think he could muster up about 10. He'd be more likely to be causing a riot than slipping away from one!

36: 3 -- I suck at languages, 11 -- I can't dance (unless one includes the pogo), 24 -- I hate tennis

Maybe not 39 too, unless it is totally different to delivering a calf.

Most of which I never learnt at school, Redruth Comp wasn't known for producing well rounded individuals.

Google translate?

Come on, you didn't really think I could speak those languages...........................................did you?

13, a miserly one third of the way to poshness.

A pleb I shall remain.

Maybe I could become a copper.

 

[Jefferson Meriwether]

Looks like I'm far from posh, just a common prol.


21. Drive a tractor, reverse a trailer, renew engine oil and change a wheel

I could drive a tractor before I could drive a car and am better at reversing a trailer than my Dad.

 

[Trail Child]

I am Canadian, therefore, remain happily a total pleb.

[Canrider]

1. Cook three different dinner party menus

Needs to further define 'menu'. Or 'party'. Or 'different'.

4. Ride a horse to jackaroo standard

Assumes prior knowledge of 'jackaroo standard', and that 'jackaroo' is a standard we should agree is wholly adequate...

5. Be a 'tech whisperer', able to fix and set up the latest technogadgets

Frankly, anyone who describes 'be able to set up things' as 'tech whisperer' deserves to be used as food rations.

8. Know how to grow carrots from seed, distinguish five native trees, identify 20 flowers and arrange a bunch

...bunch sprint?

11. Dance the eightsome reel, waltz to Strauss and bop to Lady Gaga

One does not simply...bop...to Lady Gaga...the Great Eye is ever watchful...Not with ten thousand men could you do this...it is folly!

16. Tie a bow tie, bowline and Bloody Butcher

I've always found the Reef and Clove Hitch to be so much more...eloquent?

17. Sail a boat across the Solent

Sights set too low..

22. Find their way round five capital cities

One does not simply...

23. Host a party and put others at their ease

One does not...

24. Sustain a 10-shot rally at tennis

Otherwise entitled 'How to collude with fellow pupils'.

28. Score a cricket match

Surely that's not the point..

32. Amuse small children for at least an hour with magic tricks and storytelling

Surely this is why The Help were paid to invent Nick Jr.?

34. Be authoritatively acquainted with at least one work by da Vinci, Constable, Degas, Turner and Canaletto

On WHOSE authority?!

36. Slip away from a football riot

One does not simply...oh, you get the idea..

37. Address a member of the Royal Family

And, as with all things, Google is your friend...
